spinach gorgonzola cornbread

i thought this was so tasty.  however, i couldn't think of an occasion or a main dish where i would say, "what would be really great with this is that spinach gorgonzola cornbread!"  it almost tastes like quiche, just a touch sweeter.  so when i make it again, i might add some ham and vegetables to just make it a main dish.

this same recipe is on a few websites so i don't know who to attribute it to.  all the recipes say to cook on high for 1 1/2 hours.  mine wasn't quite done in the middle after that and needed about 45 more minutes on low.

ingredients

17 oz cornbread mix (i used marie calendars) 
3 eggs 
1/2 cup cream 
1 (10 ounce) box frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained 
1 cup crumbled gorgonzola 
1 teaspoon ground black pepper 
paprika (optional--for color on crust) 

directions

spray crock pot with cooking spray.  combine all ingredients and scoop into crock pot.  cook on high for 1 1/2 hours.
